This 1993 Audi 90 factory service and repair manual is built around this exact year, engine and trim, so the specifications and repair sequences inside are the ones Audi published for the 2.8L V6 (engine code AAH) rather than a generic figure pulled from another model year.

Known issues on the 1993 Audi 90. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the fuel injection system: an internal fuel injector seal can malfunction and allow fuel leakage in the engine compartment, which can lead to a fire if an ignition source is present. The second covers the frontal airbag sensor and control module: some sensors did not meet Audi's durability standards over the life of the vehicle, and a malfunctioning sensor can cause the airbag to deploy inadvertently, risking loss of vehicle control. Owners have filed 22 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind both systems are here.
From tracing a fuel injector leak to inspecting the airbag sensor circuit or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1993 Audi 90.
